Charlie Daniels speaks out on immigration

I don't know how everybody else feels about it, but to me I
think Hispanic people in this country, legally or illegally,
made a huge public relations mistake with their recent demonstrations.

I don't blame anybody in the world for wanting to come to the
United States of America, as it is a truly wonderful place.

But when the first thing you do when you set foot on American soil is illegal it is flat out wrong and I don't care how many lala land left heads come out of the woodwork and start trying
to give me sensitivity lessons.

I don't need sensitivity lessons, in fact I don't have any-thing against Mexicans! I just have something against criminals and anybody who comes into this country illegally is a criminal
and if you don't believe it try coming into America from a foreign country without a passport and see how far you get. What disturbs me about the demonstrations is that it's tanta-mount to saying, "I am going to come into your country even if
it means breaking your laws and there's nothing you can do about it."

It's an "in your face" action and speaking just for me, I don't like it one little bit and if there were a half dozen pairs of gonads in Washington bigger than English peas it wouldn't be happening.

Where are you, you bunch of lily livered, pantywaist, forked tongued, sorry excuses for defenders of The Constitution? Have you been drinking the water out of the Potomac again?
And even if you pass a bill on immigration it will probably be so pork laden and watered down that it won't mean anything anyway. Besides, what good is another law going to do when you
won't enforce the ones on the books now?

And what ever happened to the polls, guys? I thought you folks were the quintessential finger wetters. Well you sure ain't paying any attention to the polls this time because somewhere around eighty percent of Americans want some thing done about this mess, and mess it is and getting bigger everyday.

This is no longer a problem, it is a dilemma and headed for being a tragedy. Do you honestly think that what happened in France with the Muslims can't happen here when the businesses who hire these people finally run out of jobs and a few million disillusioned Hispanics take to the streets?

If you, Mr. President, Congressmen and Senators, knuckle under on this and refuse to do something meaningful it means that you care nothing for the kind of country your children and grand-children will inherit.
But I guess that doesn't matter as long as you get re-elected.
Shame on you.
One of the big problems in America today is that if you have the nerve to say anything derogatory about any group of people (except Christians) you are going to be screamed at by the media and called a racist, a bigot and anything else they can think of to call you

Well I've been pounded by the media before and I'm still rockin' and rollin' and when it comes to speaking the truth I fear not.
And the truth is that the gutless, gonadless, milksop politicians are just about to sell out the United States of America because they don't have the intestinal fortitude to stand up to face reality.

And reality is that we would never allow any other group of people to have 12 million illegal in this country and turn around and say, "Oh it's ok, ya'll can stay here if you'll just allow us to slap your wrist."

And I know that some of you who read this column are saying "Well what's wrong with that?"
I'll tell you what's wrong with it. These people could be from Mars as far as we know. We don't know who they are, where they are or what they're up to and the way the Congress is going we're not going to.

Does this make sense? Labor force you say? We already subsidize corporate agriculture as it is, must we subsidize their labor as well?
If these people were from Haiti would we be so fast to turn a blind eye to them or if they were from Somalia or Afghanistan ?
I think not.

All the media shows us are pictures of hard working Hispanics who have crossed the border just to try to better their life.
They don't show you pictures of the Feds rounding up members of MS 13, the violent gang who came across the same way the decent folks did. They don't tell you about the living conditions of the Mexican illegal some fat cat hired to pick his crop.

I want to make two predictions.

No. 1: This situation is going to grow and fester until it erupts in violence on our streets while the wimps in Washington drag their toes in the dirt and try to figure how many tons of political hay they can make to the acre.

No 2: Somebody is going to cross that border with some kind of weapon of mass destruction and set it off in a major American city after which there will be a backlash such as this country has never experienced and the Capitol building in Washington will probably tilt as Congressmen and Senators rush to the other side of the issue.

I don't know about you but I would love to see just one major politician stand up and say, "I don't care who I make mad and I don't care how many votes I lose, this is a desperate situation and I'm going to lead the fight to get it straightened out."
I don't blame anybody for wanting to come to America , but if you don't respect our immigration laws why should you respect any others?
And by the way, this is America and our flag has stars and stripes Please get that other one out of my face.

maybe, we should remember, that most of us were immigrants, at one time. As our relatives, came from europe, and took over this land, which was inhabited by the indians and mexicans. Anyone talking about the mexicans, should remember, who was here first.

I am not mexican, or indian. But, I think we should remember what our ancestors did to these people.

I dont care whether immigrants, illegal or not, come here. I think its good for the economy. They work, spend money, etc.........

It works out good for us.

Hopefully, we all understand, that you pay taxes, even if you dont pay, taxes on your income.

The only people, I am against coming here, are muslims. We can just look back to 9/11, and see what they are capable of.

I don't agree with what you're saying, but at least you were making sense.

Then you throw this in, and it totally blows your credibility to shit.

Im a European inmigrant in EEUU, I really love this country and I was really tired of the socialist system in europe.
America is a wonderfull country full of oportunities for everyone who want to work hard.
and americans are very nobel people in general.

but i have a problem with mexicans,no with the rest of the hispanic population in US (I think they are ver hard workers)

But i think that the mexicans in US really hate this country and want to take it back,they burn america flag, they took out the america flag and put the mexican flag at the post office in california, they dont want to speak english, they dont want to go to school and now they are doing stupid marchs around the country just like they do in their third world tequila republic.

they are racist, just watch their TVs, everybody in their soap operas or musicians are blond and blue eyes, when 99% of the population in that country are indians..

they don let other hispanic cultures in the US to express themself, if you watch univision or telemundo you'll see that everything is about mexico mexico and mexico.. their news is only about mexico and more mexico..

and, make no mistake, Im No talking about mexicans-americans,im talking about mexicans in mexico..

mexicans are destroying more jobs than any rescesion in america history, at least 12 million well paid jobs had left to this low-pay employeess.

they think that texas, arizona and california was take out and they should regain those land, but they tend to forget that when you come to a country like this,you're emigrating to a system, NOT to a piece of land..

im really worried about that this great country becoming into a china third world type powerhouse in the near future.

soon I will become an american, and very proud of that!!

I suspect that mexicans have a very diferent opinion about that, they will never fell americans, they will always be mexicans.

that's the Key diference at the long end between mexican inmigrant and the rest of the inmigrants in the United State..

this a country of law.. this is why america is diferente in this planet... we, as inmigrant should protect that, no matter what!!
